The qdict_flatten() method will take a dict whose elements are
further nested dicts/lists and flatten them by concatenating
keys.
The qdict_crumple() method aims to do the reverse, taking a flat
qdict, and turning it into a set of nested dicts/lists. It will
apply nesting based on the key name, with a '.' indicating a
new level in the hierarchy. If the keys in the nested structure
are all numeric, it will create a list, otherwise it will create
a dict.
If the keys are a mixture of numeric and non-numeric, or the
numeric keys are not in strictly ascending order, an error will
be reported.
As an example, a flat dict containing
{
'foo.0.bar': 'one',
'foo.0.wizz': '1',
'foo.1.bar': 'two',
'foo.1.wizz': '2'
}
will get turned into a dict with one element 'foo' whose
value is a list. The list elements will each in turn be
dicts.
{
'foo': [
{ 'bar': 'one', 'wizz': '1' },
{ 'bar': 'two', 'wizz': '2' }
],
}
If the key is intended to contain a literal '.', then it must
be escaped as '..'. ie a flat dict
{
'foo..bar': 'wizz',
'bar.foo..bar': 'eek',
'bar.hello': 'world'
}
Will end up as
{
'foo.bar': 'wizz',
'bar': {
'foo.bar': 'eek',
'hello': 'world'
}
}
The intent of this function is that it allows a set of QemuOpts
to be turned into a nested data structure that mirrors the nesting
used when the same object is defined over QMP.
